the 1st post of this thread was posted by someone employed by Relenza. they must have a 'ground swell' marketing strategy. ie, joining various influential and uber-hip message boards and attempting to generate discussion about their product in order to create awareness of them.

On one hand, it's interesting that this medium gets that kind of respect, on the other it sucks my ass.

Clodfobble was very astute, imo, in sniffing it out. I had a vague feeling about it, but she posted her comment before it had even coalesced in my mind. UT exressed his dissapointment in not catching the spammer. now that we've replied, he prolly won;t delete the thread like he would ordinarilly. it takes more work than many of us appreciate to keep a forum clean from this kind of thing, it would seem. we should send him money in thanks for his constant effort. just make sure you tell him who gave you the idea, so i can collect a commission. nyuk nyuk nyuk.
